NAME

       Mail::Server::IMAP4::Fetch - message info for IMAP protocol speed-up

SYNOPSIS

        my $imap = Mail::Server::IMAP4::Fetch->new($msg);
        print $imap->fetchBody(1);   # for FETCH BODYSTRUCTURE
        print $imap->fetchBody;      # for FETCH BODY
        print $imap->fetchEnvelope;  # for FETCH ENVELOPE
        print $imap->fetchSize;

DESCRIPTION

       Create a new object hierarchy, which contains information to capture the most important
       details about the message.  The object can be used to speed-up IMAP-server
       implementations, as Mail::Box::Netzwert.

       The object used here is a simplified representation of a Mail::Box::Message object.  It
       does not maintain headers and does not refer to the folder.  It only works with messages
       stored in a file.  Therefore, this object can be frozen by Storable if you want to.

METHODS

   Constructors
       Mail::Server::IMAP4::Fetch->new( <$message|$part>, %options )

   Attributes
       $obj->bodyLocation()
       $obj->headLocation()
       $obj->partLocation()

   IMAP Commands
       $obj->fetchBody($extended)
           Returns one string, representing the message's structure as defined by the IMAP
           protocol.  The boolean argument indicates whether you like to have the $extended
           information, as the imap command 'FETCH BODYSTRUCTURE' defines or the limited
           information of 'FETCH BODY'.

       $obj->fetchEnvelope()
           Returns a string representation of some header information.

       $obj->fetchSize()
           Returns the size of the message body.

       $obj->part( [$partnr] )
           The partnummer is a list of dot-separated positive integers, numbering (nested) parts
           in multi-part message bodies.  By default, the info of the main message is returned.

           example:

            my $partinfo = $msg->info->part('1.2.1');
            print $msg->info->part('3.3')->fetchBody;

       $obj->printStructure( [<$fh|undef>, [$number]] )
           Print the structure of the fetch data to the specified $fh or the selected filehandle.
           When explicitly "undef" is specified as handle, then the output will be returned as
           string.  Only a limited set of the information is displayed.

           example:

            my $imap = ...;
            $imap->printStructure(\*OUTPUT);
            $imap->printStructure;
            my $struct = $imap->printStructure(undef);
